Nurturing Little Stars: The Unique Benefits of our Baby Class

Parents face plenty of important decisions for the well-being of their little ones. From deciding what milk they should drink to how you will get them to sleep, you always make decisions with your little one’s best interest in mind. Generally speaking, babies start creche at around 3 months old. If you’re beginning your search for a creche, here are some useful questions to ask yourself:

  • What fun and educational baby activities are offered?
  • Will your baby receive enough individual care and attention?
  • Is the creche facility welcoming, clean, and happy?
  • Are the teachers trained in First Aid?
  • How many children are there per teacher?
  • Is there a separate room for sleep?

The Environment

A happy school environment promotes positive experiences. Our star class (babies between 3 – 18 months old) offers many unique benefits. Babies enjoy a spacious, warm, secure room with separate areas for playing and eating. A separate room connected to the Star Class has a designated cot for each baby.

Our baby class was designed with infants and babies in mind, encouraging healthy development and sparking imagination. A large ball pit and soft play blocks and shapes promote hand-eye coordination, cognitive thinking, and improved motor skills. Additionally, a sensory mat, soft toys, and sensory toys keep little ones engaged in play-based learning. The classroom is spacious and clean.

Our Teachers

Two teachers are dedicated to our Star Class, and there are no more than 8 babies at a time. The ratio of 1 teacher to 4 babies is ideal. A baby’s first few years should include responsive relationships. Loving and attentive teachers make all the difference, and establishing a routine that works is equally important.

Although we ensure a nurturing classroom environment, we also provide a level of care that sets us apart. Teachers are First-Aid trained and passionate about childcare, possessing qualities like patience, kindness, and creativity. We adapt to your baby’s routine and meet their individual needs, which helps them to settle in and experience a happy preschool journey.

Compelling evidence points to early childhood education benefits, from the young age of 3 months. Our Star Class regularly enjoys educational baby activities that enhance social skills, cognitive development, and emotional development. We also balance indoor and outdoor play and interactions with the children from older classrooms.

A school diary keeps parents informed, reporting on your child’s day. Get in touch with us to arrange a viewing of Little Phase. We are here for your little one, from their first day to their last! With this in mind, we look forward to welcoming you!
